It's ridiculous!

Try it with a non warlord halfling and EM, trust me. EM means you don't need mana potions, 2 debuffs is all you need, and you get to be a warlord on top of what you are allready (you do need to find the cydstep). If scumming is an issue, go wizard so you at least know where the glyphs are, or transmuter so you can lemisi them. For raw power go Rogue and pad out your health with a Vine From ar two right at the start, but you do need to scum up a cydstep.
